Erpland - Ozric Tentacles
Gangs - And So I watch You From Afar
Distance - Vultress
Hex - Bark Psychosis
Petrophonics - Birdsongs Of The Mesozoic
Drought - Deathspell Omega
Skin - Doctor Nerve
Recitation - Envy
Mosaik - Frames
Night - Gazpacho
Cenotes - Giant Squid
Pneuma - Hail Spirit Noir
Toscco - Happy Family
Eremita - Ihsahn
Coal - Leprous
Rubidium - Maschine
Excelsior! - Mastermind
Vehicle - miRthkon
Consonant - Opusculus
Astray - Matthew Parmenter
Australasia - Pelican
